Mr. Marriott has devoted more at

Tryon and his letter was. carefully lis
tened to, and ' received ; considerable
applause at the conclusion of . the
reading. J- Protracted discussion was
thpn entered into, and it was the
unanimous decision of all present that
something should be done; to' overcome

thoroughly, and that a bill should be
drafted and presented to the legisla

With thfe passing of the glorious

victory to our flag and peace to the

there are things that happened in the

done with a large circulation of your

the farmers of Polk' county have been

conditions." Now I have no new gos

the same old gospel of soils, crops,

the changing ! oi the system -.of farm

one of her boys, serving in the U. b.
Marines:
Issorndum, France,-Dec. 3j 1918.
My Dear Mother:
Yesterday 1 received your

are many families who would remain
m Tryon permanently if we had a
school teaching the high school
grades. We have had families to re
fuse to return to Tryon after having
come here 'for many years all on ac
count of our poor school, " ; .
The people are at last aroused, and
wev believe they are aeterminea
enough not to stop, until we secure
the, needed relief,
Many important matters . were
brought before the meeting, and it
was soon seen that every person pres
ent was there .. because they had the
welfare of the town at ; heart, and
wanted to do something to that end
Many projects were brought up and
4iscussed, and out of all of them, no
doubt some will be developed.
ym next meeting will be announced
in plenty of time for everybody in
Tryon to arrange to attend.

THE NEWS FOB J9i9.
When the present management took
hold of the NEWS it was with the de
termination ot making, it a paper
which would represent all clases of
Folk county's citizenship. We -'have
Achieved a certain amount of success
in that line, but we have only begun
jn our fight, "
We have succeeded in selecting one
of the finest corps of news gatherers
to' be found - in any newspaper in
-North Carolina. Due to their aid we
can truthfully, and not' boagtingly,
say that but few papers, give its
readers the amount of .real home
wws every week as the ' POLK
.COUNTY NEWS.
. Wf th that part of the plan success
fully accomplished, we have other
plans in view for our readers. One
of these "is to' make the NEWS A
FARMER'S PAPER. We have ar
ranged with County! Agent, J. R.
ams, .to lurnish us weekly, with a
letter dealing with' facts that concern
POLK COUNTY, Also we will run
a special column for the farmers of
the county, and we want them to feel
fre to use that space, If one column
is not enouch. we will donate more.
If you have run, up against snags tell
ft li a a in A tsnrma rVio farmDvvno

mastered it will tell you how he did it.
J he , first one of Mr, sams' articles

will have another one ftntitlslt "About

Mr, Sams' hobbies, and wiU be worth

would have been so proud of him. But
you can always know you gaVe the

He lived the life of a gentleman and
died a hero, fighting for right! It's
hard to give up such a one, but I am
sure, if you could talk with him, as
we will some day, he would -tell you
he would not have it changed for"
worlds., If it were possible I would
gladly change places with him. I
nave no higher ambition than to live
and die as he did We will see him
again, that we know, so let's don't
worry, but feel proud of him. I wish
you could all go to Florida this winter
but if you can't you must take good
care of yourself. Don't try to save

Mr. E. B. Lambert, a young man
who has recently located amongst us,
has determined to engage in the rais
ing . of thoroughbred cattle, and has
purchased land near Tryon, for that
purpose. ' - . ';,"
County Agent Sams tells us that
Mr. Lambert has selected Hoi steins
for his breed, and has asked Mr.
Sams advice as best how to proceed
in his venture.
We. welcome Mr. 7 Lambert as a
member of our citizenship . and can
hot help from feeling that he has act
ed wisely in locating in Polk county,
and especially in his selection of what
to do. . ' : . v
; If there is -any one thing that Polk
county is good for, and that God Al
mighty has more than done His part
in, it is the raising of live stock. 3t
costs no more, if as much, to raise
good cattle as it does to raise scrubs.
Mr. Lambert is a young man, there
ore is not burdened with the propo
sition! of having to "unlearn" a great
deal of what he thinks he has learned
about cattle raising. We wish his
venture great success, and feel that
he will achieve1 it. .

Railway officials conducted

cause of the accident. But it .was
stated that it is perhaps impossible ,

The mountain is very steep and for .
that reason the safety switches were

trains to enter them unless a signal ,

well and that the train is in condi-
